SELLER INSIGHT

It was the sheer elegance of this 1901 period house which first drew us to the property,” say the current owners of this 5,200 sq ft family home, desirably located on West Common in Gerrards Cross. “The house is light, airy and warm with a wealth of period features including open fireplaces. During our time here, we have completely refurbished the house to include all mod cons, from and in-out driveway with electric gates, to a wine cellar and sonos. There iis still potential to extend the house further, sitting as it does on a massive half-acre plot.”

Benefitting from exceptional entertaining space throughout as well as a separate one-bedroom self-contained annexe, this is the ideal home for everyday life and entertaining alike. “This is the best party house,” the owners say, “with an easy flow between the downstairs reception rooms, all of which have different characters. The back of the house opens out completely onto a wonderful west facing patio so that the party can spill out into the garden, too.”

“The flexible accommodation expands and contracts depending on who is at home,” the owners continue. “The property offers many possibilities for multi-generational living: a pseudo separate wing with its own entrance provides a soundproof space away from the rest of the house for teen parties, a quiet work area or guest accomodation; while the annex in the garden can serve as a gym, office or granny flat. Outside, the garden is private yet open, with a large flat space for football and trampolining, and a sunny patio for al fresco dining.”

The local area surrounding the property has much to recommend it, too. “This location is one of a kind,” the owners say. “It faces the wooded common so feels utterly undisturbed, like being in the countryside, yet we are just 3 minutes’ walk from the shops, 6 minutes on foot from the station, and 17 minutes by train from London. The address provides access to amazing local schools including grammar and Ofsted Outstanding, with school buses for both state and independent schools within walking distance from the front door.”*
